(I have not yet tested this extension.)


Google Chrome Extensions: Please tell me which programming language is most suitable for writing browser extensions for Google Chrome.

Google Chrome extensions can be developed using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. These are the core technologies for building web pages and creating web applications, and they are also the most suitable languages for writing browser extensions for Google Chrome.


JavaScript is used to add interactivity to web pages and to implement the logic of the extension. HTML is used to structure the extension's content and to define the user interface. CSS is used to style the extension's user interface.


You can also use other languages that can be transpiled to JavaScript, such as TypeScript or CoffeeScript, to write your extension. However, the extension will ultimately be run as JavaScript in the browser, so it's important to have a good understanding of JavaScript to develop Chrome extensions.

Please write a Google Chrome extension to help me find 4K HDRI CC0 images of space.

Sure! Here's a Google Chrome extension that will help you find 4K HDRI CC0 images of space:


Create a new folder for your extension and open it in a text editor.


Create a file called "manifest.json" and add the following code to it:


Copy code

{

  "manifest_version": 2,

  "name": "4K HDRI CC0 Space Images",

  "description": "Finds 4K HDRI CC0 images of space.",

  "version": "1.0",

  "permissions": ["activeTab"],

  "browser_action": {

    "default_icon": "icon.png",

    "default_popup": "popup.html"

  }

}

Create a file called "popup.html" and add the following code to it:

Copy code

<!doctype html>

<html>

  <head>

    <title>4K HDRI CC0 Space Images</title>

  </head>

  <body>

    <h1>4K HDRI CC0 Space Images</h1>

    <p>Find 4K HDRI CC0 images of space by clicking the button below:</p>

    <button id="find-images-button">Find Images</button>

    <script src="popup.js"></script>

  </body>

</html>

Create a file called "popup.js" and add the following code to it:

Copy code

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {

  var findImagesButton = document.getElementById('find-images-button');

  findImagesButton.addEventListener('click', function() {

    var query = "4K HDRI CC0 space images";

    var url = "https://www.google.com/search?q=" + encodeURIComponent(query);

    chrome.tabs.create({url: url});

  });

});

Create an "icon.png" file and add it to the extension's folder. This will be the icon for the extension in the Chrome toolbar.


In Google Chrome, go to the "Extensions" page (chrome://extensions/).


Enable "Developer mode" by clicking the toggle switch in the top right corner of the page.


Click the "Load unpacked" button and select the folder containing your extension.


The extension will now be installed and you can use it to find 4K HDRI CC0 images of space by clicking the icon in the Chrome toolbar.


I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
